| what are the steps to read a digital input like toggle swtch |

give me the basic idea to write code to read a digital input using 16F877a in CCS compiler and to display a message as that particular" DI is high" in LCD . waiting for the reply.

Start by doing an LED flasher.
When it flashes at the correct speed you know the compiler & PIC are working properly.
Progress to making a switch control the LED.
Next get the LCD to do "Hello World".
Finally merge the switch and LCD codes.
CCS provides schematics for the hardware, and examples for all the code.

Hi,
Look at the 'input' function....
| Code: |
If (input(Pin_A0))
Printf("Pin A0 is high\n\r");
Else
Printf("Pin A0 is low\n\r");

Don't forget you have to debounce the switch or you will get LOTS of switch activations

| is the format rgt to link led ,Lcdand switch? getting error |

I am getting error as numeric expression is expected. I want to on/off switch and corresponding LED as a do should be on/off. Msg is respectively displayed in LCD.
| Code: |
#include <16f877a.h>
#fuses XT,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,BROWNOUT,PUT,NOLVP
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7)
#define Button Pin_C4;
#define Led Pin_B4;
#include <lcd.c>
void main()
{
while(1);
{
lcd_init();
//lcd_putc,("/f welcome to ETPL");
//lcd_putc,("/n LCD interface");
If(input(Pin_C4))
Printf(" Pin C4 is high\n\r");
output_B(0);
output_high(Pin_B4);//PIN_B4=1;
Else
Printf("Pin C4 is low/n/r");

You need to add the brackets as shown. |

For what it's worth,
I'm a HUGE fan of ALWAYS encapsulating conditional statements with brackets/braces (whatever the language uses).
I never use:
| Code: |
If ()
statement;
else
statement;
|
I ALWAYS use:
| Code: |
If () {
statement;
} else {
statement;
}
|
I've seen too many bugs of people adding things to conditionals that didn't use braces and when they added stuff, the braces didn't go in, the extra code didn't run right.

Remove the ; from the PIN_C4 and PIN_B4 defines.

1) Code offered is neither complete nor compilable.
2) lcd_init(); should not be inside while loop. Only needs to happen once.
3) Insert a 1 second delay before initialising LCD to allow device to settle.
4) You have defined Button and Led, then do not use them!!!

I am connecting the button switch to pin C4 and LED to Pin B4, then how can i mention that in the code mr. mike, especially to link everything in the main code?

After putting Brace,
my code is,
| Code: |
#include <16f877a.h>
#fuses XT,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,BROWNOUT,PUT,NOLVP
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7)
#define Button Pin_C4;
#define Led Pin_B4;
#include <lcd.c>
void main()
{
lcd_init();
delay_ms(1000);
while(1);
{
//lcd_putc,("/f welcome to ETPL");
//lcd_putc,("/n LCD interface");
If(input(Pin_C4))
{
Printf(" Pin C4 is high\n\r");
output_B(0);
output_high(Pin_B4);
//PIN_B4=1;
}
Else
{
Printf("Pin C4 is low/n/r");
}

Your code is still neither complete nor compilable.
1) Count the opening and closing braces.
2) I said put the delay BEFORE the lcd_init().
3) You are still not using the Button and Led defines in your code.

sorry i put the braces correctly,the mistake occurred in the above code while copying.but i didnot understand that u have told me i have not used the defines LED and button,i used it as pin C4 and B4, then how to use it?
